As a hands-on CTO you will:
- Act as the CTO for a small scale portfolio of acquired companies
- Provide sound advice on development and cloud best practices
- Develop and implement any software architectural changes to improve reusability, reliability, security and cost.
- Lead initiatives to deliver significant cloud savings with limited code changes.
- Analyse current architecture (software and cloud), propose and implement changes across both cloud and software to deliver:
a) an improved architecture to help us scale and/or implement new features quickly
b) cost savings - Apply software best practices in terms of both technical (writing high-quality code, breaking dependencies, peer review, high test coverage, good documentation, etc.) and project management/agile (well-groomed epics/stories, accurate story points, tight project plans, etc).
- Assist in prioritising the development teams' workload effectively to deliver customer projects, support SLAs and product roadmap items on time.
- Use existing tools (e.g. JIRA) to report on progress (sprint velocity/burndown), share the short and long term development plan with internal stakeholders.
- Prepare and attend key customer/prospect calls to understand their requirements, suggest recommendations, document the solution and accurately estimate the work involved.
- Assist with building a product roadmap based on customer/market requirements and translate these roadmap requirements into execution planning.

- Have technical leadership experience
- Have 8+ years as a Backend centric Software Engineer and 2+ in technical leadership roles
- Are highly proficient and experienced with AWS and its services
- Able to design and drive significant cloud cost reduction initiatives by optimizing architecture and code-base.

Alright... so you’ve made it all the way down
You’re probably wondering: “yeh, it sounds great, but what the hell is Flatworld?”
In a nutshell: we help developers find fully remote roles!
What makes us amazing for developers is that instead of applying to jobs individually, you simply apply to our platform and we take care of matching you to a company and getting you hired.
That means we go out and show the companies you're the right fit for them.
We will also hold your hand through the paperwork and hiring process so all you have to do is complete our application, show up to some interviews, and lay back while we get you the job.
It really is that simple... so simple that if Linus was a remote dev looking for a job he'd be like:
“Flatworld is just incredible... I can’t even explain it”

* No, Linus didn’t say this. But he probably would...
